Answer:
B ) Diabetes mellitus
Explanation:
Adrenergic receptors were initially divided into two broad categories, α and β . β-adrenergic receptors are present in different cells, acting in a variety of functions, including hormone release modulation, metabolic control and cardiovascular regulation.
Stimulation of β-adrenergic receptors in Langerhans islets promotes increased blood glucose in humans, so that β2-adrenergic agonists are used to treat hypoglycemia. In adipocytes, it has been shown that β3 receptors act on leptin release. Moreover, the balance between lipogenesis and lipolysis is associated with stimulation of α and β-adrenergic receptors, respectively.
β-adrenergic agonists (drugs that increase β-adrenergic receptors activity) activate specific membrane receptors of muscle fibers and adipocytes, modifying cellular metabolism of muscle and adipose tissues. They can cause hyperglicemia, which aggravate the diabetes problem.
Which of the following statements about disability etiquette is FALSE: A. ALWAYS…Ask before you act! B. Think before you speak. C. Respond graciously to requests. D. It’s ok to pet a service dog if he doesn’t look busy.
Answer:
D. It’s ok to pet a service dog if he doesn’t look busy.
Explanation:
Service dogs are trained to increase the quality of life of People with Disabilities, offer independence and the opportunity to live without the need for constant help from professionals or family members. Service dogs are easy and cute, but cannot treat the same way as other dogs.
When you find a service dog and he is using the disability tag, it means he is working, so you should not touch or pet him, let alone play with him, even if he is "unoccupied" as he may be distracted and cause an accident to its owner.
What should you do if you suddenly feel ill and/or develop a headache during a scuba dive?
Answer:
You should come back immediately, but not fast, to the surface and get fresh air.
Explanation:
Scuba diving is the practice of diving that consists of partial or total submersion in the water, using for this purpose, a self-contained breathing apparatus, also known as diving equipment.
During scuba dive, a lot of problems can happen because of the depth and compression of the air, so in any case of feeling ill, you need to come back to surface.
In scuba diving, the diver is assisted by equipment that he carries with him and allows him to breathe underwater. Although physical activity is healthy even for those with a basic respiratory disease, diving is a sport that requires redoubled care. When the individual dives, the gases in the diving cylinder dissolve in the blood because of pressure greater than atmospheric pressure. The phenomenon becomes more intense depending on the depth and gases used. Compressed air gas is the most common used in recreational diving. At greater depths, gas mixtures such as helium and oxygen or helium, oxygen and nitrogen are used.
The main problem is not the dive itself, but the risk of decompression when the individual rises too quickly to the surface. Residual nitrogen is the nitrogen remaining in the body after a dive, whose delay time to be eliminated depends on the dive time and depth reached. If the elimination of residual nitrogen is deficient (due to health or external factors such as a very rapid climb), nitrogen bubbles that cannot be eliminated from the human body can become trapped in tissues or in the bloodstream. This occurrence is called decompression sickness. When this occurs, gas bubbles form in the circulation that can cause myocardial infarction (heart attack) or stroke (stroke).
Some pathogens are spread directly from one person to another. This can happen when people come into direct contact or share items, such as drinking glasses.

a clients head protrudes during a pulling assessment. which of the following muscles should be stretched?
sternocleidomastoid
Answer:
The missing options are:
A. Longus coli
B. Longus capitis
C. Sternocleidomastoid
D. Supraspinatus
The answer is C. Sternocleidomastoid.
Explanation:
The sternocleidomastoid is the muscle that should be stretched because it is the one that was affected due to an inappropriate position while performing the pulling. The sternocleidomastoid produces cervical rotation, cervical flexion, the elevation of the sternum, and assists in forced inhalation, none of these actions should be done during the pulling assesment if they are done the client's head will probably protrude.
What maternal behavior during pregnancy was related to behavior problems in adolescence?
Answer:
Maternal behavior like non communication with the baby, non affective bond and problems with acceptance the pregnancy could be factors that trigger disorders in the child in the future, like personality issues, mental disorders and socialize problems.
Explanation:
The affective relationship with the unborn baby is fundamental for the formation and strengthening of the maternal bond. Studies show that the first six years are decisive in one's life, especially due to brain development. The formation of the baby, however, has begun before its birth. The recognition that all the baby's senses already work even before birth has been scientifically proven. The way the mother reacts to pregnancy and how does she deal with the baby during pregnancy is fundamental to the child's formation, which will impact in adolescence. Therefore, communication with the baby is very important.
Depressed maternal behavior, like unable to communicate with her baby may have negative surprises in the future. The absence of this bridge with the child will make bond formation difficult. Consequently, the baby will have a compromised formation without attachment, and may develop personality issues, neuroses, psychoses and problems in socialize in the future (adolescence or adult life).
When Neron turned 21, his friends took him out for his first drink. He ended up drinking far more than he planned that night, and he was badly hung over the next day. Neron enjoys spending time with his friends when they go out, but he doesn't want to feel sick the next day. Which strategy will help Neron reduce the harmful effects of alcohol the next time he goes out?
Eating before drinking can help him reduce the harmful effects of alcohol the next day.
Why fats and proteins are better before drinking?People usually believe that eating an excess amount of carbohydrates before drinking will help as it would act as a sponge to soak up the alcohol. This is usually not true as carbohydrates digest easily and are consumed during cellular respiration. thus it will digest quickly and will not be much effective in preventing the effects of alcohol.
A better thing to do would be to consume a rich nutritious meal with a high amount of proteins and healthy fats. These do not break up that easily and therefore will be effective in case of alcohol consumption for a longer time.
The best options for a healthy diet before alcohol consumption are eggs, rich in protein, and fruits like bananas and avocadoes which are rich in potassium and healthy fat.
Therefore, proteins and fats are better because they digest slowly compared to carbohydrates and therefore would be better to reduce the effects of alcohol.

To mitigate the harmful effects of alcohol and prevent hangovers, Neron should drink in moderation, stay hydrated, eat before drinking, space out alcoholic drinks, and set a consumption limit. It's crucial to be aware of the effects of alcohol on the excretory system, including potential liver and kidney damage from heavy drinking.
Explanation:To reduce the harmful effects of alcohol, Neron should consider several strategies. First and foremost, alcohol should be consumed in moderation, defined as up to two drinks per day for men, and only by adults of legal drinking age. It's important to give the liver enough time to fully metabolize the ingested alcohol to avoid alcohol toxicity. Furthermore, since alcohol consumption can inhibit a hormone that helps the body retain water, leading to dehydration, it's essential to drink plenty of water before, during, and after drinking alcohol. Thus, staying hydrated is key in preventing a hangover.
In addition, eating a substantial meal before drinking can help slow the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. Spacing out alcoholic drinks throughout the night, alternating with non-alcoholic beverages, and avoiding mixing different types of alcohol can also help manage the immediate effects of alcohol which depend on the drinker's blood alcohol concentration (BAC). Acknowledging the long-term effects on the excretory system, especially the liver and kidneys, is critical as well. Heavy consumption can lead to serious health consequences such as liver and kidney disease.
To minimize negative social repercussions, setting a limit before going out and sticking to it can prevent overconsumption. Lastly, understanding individual responses to alcohol, which can be affected by factors like age, sex, and pre-existing health conditions, can guide Neron in consuming alcohol safely when socializing with friends.

a. The native peoples lacked resistance to these diseases.
b. Europeans refused to share their medicines with the native peoples.
c. Europeans forced the native peoples to abandon their traditional medicines, which had kept the diseases largely at bay before contact.
d. Europeans forced the native peoples to relocate to massive urban centers, where the bacteria easily spread.
Answer:
According to the textbook, the diseases such as smallpox and measles produce epidemics that ravaged or completely wiped out native populations in the Americas after contact with Europeans in the late fifteenth century because (A) The native Americans lacked the immune system to fight diseases like measles and smallpox.
Explanation:
With the arrival of the Europeans in native America in the 15th century many diseases were brought. These diseases took the form of epidemics and almost wiped away the population of native Americans. This happened because the Americans had no contacts before with the European culture and lifestyle thus they didn't develop the necessary immune system internally to fight diseases like measles, smallpox, cholera etc. They also lacked the medicines to prevent or fight these diseases.

She further tells you that the patient has been urinating excessively and has progressively worsened over the past 24 hour to 36 hours. On the basis of this patient's clinical presentation, you should suspect that she:
Answer:
As she is not controlling the blood sugar and has been urinating excessively, she probaly is in hyperglycemia crisis.
Explanation:
Diabetes is a chronic disease where the increase does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use it effectively. An insulin or hormone that regulates blood glucose and is critical to maintaining the body's well-being, which needs its energy to function.
Type 1 Diabetes: the cause of this type of diabetes is still unknown and the best way to prevent it is through healthy living practices (eating, physical activity and avoiding alcohol, tobacco and other drugs). People with type 1 diabetes should administer insulin daily to regulate the amount of glucose in their blood.
Hyperglycemia is characterized by the presence of high blood sugar (glucose), which may be caused by overeating, lack of exercise or, for diabetics, lack of insulin and may progress over the course of a day or several days. The main symptoms of high sugar in a diabetic people are: increased urination, thirst and hunger. Fatigue, restlessness and weight loss may also be less common symptoms. Although these symptoms do not always mean that you have hyperglycemia.
B's policy had a $1,000 annual premium. B has not paid it for 2 years and wants to put the policy back in force. The insurer charges 10% interest on overdue premiums. What does B have to pay in order to reinstate their policy?
Answer:
$2200
Explanation:
B pays $1000 annually meaning in the 2 years of not paying he now owes $2000.
10% of $2000 = $200, therefore, with that interest added B now owes $2200.
Therefore, in order to re-instate his policy, he will have to pay $2200
He may also need to pay an additional $1000 for that upcoming year depending on when the re-instating is occuring in the year
Final answer:
B must pay the overdue premiums of $2,000 plus the interest of $200, making the total amount due $2,200 to reinstate their insurance policy.
Explanation:
To reinstate B's insurance policy, we need to calculate the total amount due, including the unpaid premiums and the interest charged on those premiums. B's annual premium is $1,000, and B has missed two years of payments. This means the overdue premiums amount to $2,000 ($1,000 per year for two years).
The insurer charges 10% interest on overdue premiums. To calculate the interest for one year, we multiply the annual premium by the interest rate: $1,000 × 0.10 = $100. Since the payment was due for two years, the total interest is $100 per year for two years, which is $200.
Therefore, to reinstate the policy, B must pay the overdue premiums of $2,000 plus the interest of $200, making the total amount due $2,200.

Which is most likely responsible for the recent increase in type 2 diabetes in the population:
(A) an increase in prevalence of obesity genetic changes(B) an increase in consumption of high-fructose corn syrup(C) an increase in gestational diabetes(D) an increase in allergies and autoimmune diseases
Answer:A. Increase in prevalence of obesity and genetic changes
Explanation:
The most likely answer from the options that has led to the increase in type 2 diabetes is an increase in prevalence of obesity and genetic changes and this is because both obesity and genetics are very strong risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes.
The second option which is an increase in consumption of high fructose corn syrup is a little off because when your pancreas is functioning very well and insulin is being secreted properly, the body will definitely take care of the fructose meal without leading to type 2 diabetes.
The third option which is an increase in gestational diabetes is usually a temporary increase in blood sugar that is related to pregnancy and usually resolves soon after given birth.
The last option which involves increase in allergies and autoimmune disease is not really implicated in type 2 diabetes but instead autoimmune diseases is directly linked to type 1 diabetes and not type 2.
Answer:
an increase in prevalence of obesity genetic changes

Which of the following is the most appropriate response action if your animal has been exposed to radiation?
a) Wash the animals and the areas where they sleep.b) Create a distance between the animal and the source of radiation.c) Seek medical attention from a veterinarian before handling the animal.d) Feed the animal barium tablets
Answer:
Seek medical attention from a veterinarian before handling the animal.
Explanation:
Veterinarian science may be defined as the field of the science that mainly deals with the well being and the health of the animals. The animals doctors are important for the proper care of the animals.
Animals have always been used for the humans to obtain food and market product. They need proper veterinarian checkup regularly and may also get injured or diseased. If the animals has exposed to the radiation, the animal cannot be treated directly and requires the medical attention.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
Final answer:
Option b and c are correct. The correct response action when an animal has been exposed to radiation is to create a distance between the animal and the source of radiation and to seek medical attention from a veterinarian for further guidance.
Explanation:
When an animal has been exposed to radiation, the most appropriate initial steps are laid out in principles of radiation protection. These steps include minimizing time spent near the source of radiation, increasing distance from the source, and providing adequate shielding. Among the given options, the correct option for an immediate response would be to create a distance between the animal and the source of radiation. This reduces the intensity of exposure to radiation as it decreases inversely with the square of the distance.
It is equally important to seek medical attention from a veterinarian for professional advice on how to handle the situation. The veterinarian can provide specific instructions based on the type and amount of radiation exposure. Washing the animals and the areas where they sleep may also be a recommended step, but this would generally follow a professional assessment. Feeding the animal barium tablets without a veterinary recommendation is not advised, as this does not directly address radiation exposure.
